Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/s3fs-fuse/s3fs-fuse/issues/653

I'm using 1.82 or newer and I keep getting unknown option "use_path_request_style" or "endpoint".

I've read that if my bucket has a dot(.) inside its name , I should use the "use_path_request_style" option.

My call when I try mounting:

s3fs bucket.name /mnt/s3 -o passwd_file=/etc/passwd-s3fs -endpoint=eu-west-2 -o use_path_request_style

Did anyone encounter this problem? Any suggestions (besides renaming the bucket, because I'm not allowed to do that) ?

Same problem here. If the bucket name contains a dot, s3fs mount fails (no error message).
